Transmission problem:Please help!
A gearbox of my friend's '93 ZR-1 did not work definitely.
He can't put it in First gear and second gear.About this problem, the solenoid which controlled 1 to 4 of the gearbox regarded us as a cause. However, I do not think that He can't send Gear to first and second, because a solenoid breaks down. I thought that I might be due elsewhere. I thought about whether it would not be the serious trouble in more gearboxes. I looked for the thread about this problem, but I was not able to find it. Please please help to solve this problem. |

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!
It is difficult to understand the problem.
I doubt the 1 to 4 solenoid is the problem. (It is called CAGs) Please tell me. Are the other gears shifts ok? 1 NG ? 2 NG ? 3 OK ? 4 OK ? 5 OK ? 6 OK ?

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!
Sounds like a bad clutch master cylinder or bad slave master cylinder.

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!
Check your clutch fluid ... I recently replaced both the slave & master cylinders because of a slow leak (slave was bad). If you do have a leak, consider replacing both slave & master at the same time.

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!
Order the master and slave here :
http://www.zfdoc.com/ And don't use the car untill it's fixed. If you do use the car the fix will cost much more.

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!
If the 1-4 solenoid stuck at 4th gear position this could cause the "shifter won't move to 1-2 gate". I (thankfully) have not had to look at that, but how hard is it to remove the solenoid?
Good luck, - Jeff

Re: Transmission problem:Please help!
Kenji, I certainly agree with others you should check the master and slave cylinder as well as fluid level however, based on what you have described you may have lost the 1 & 2 gear synchro.
Unfortunately if this is true, it is not easy to fix. I have rebuilt the ZF6 transmission before. It is doable but you must be brave and make sure you have the a 10 or 20 ton press available. I can point you at a CD that walks you through the process if a rebuild becomes necessary. I hope the cyclone now in Japan is not where you are.
